Fernanda Maciel - Guitarra Portuguesa, is one of the very first women to play the Portuguese guitar professionally. This pioneer, originally from Brazil, moved to Portugal for the instrument, to study and play.
Fernanda will be in conversation with Sonia Shirsat, the Queen of Goan Fado, from Ponda and the ambassador of Goan music to the world.
They will introduce us to this special genre of music (described by UNESCO as an "Intangible Cultural Heritage"), speak about their experiences as professionals in the same field, and working across continents.
